The prices were full 4S. per head dearer than last year; ewes fetched from .245. to des. wet hers 3es. to 465. lambs tea. to 235. The preference was in favour of South-down stock. . At Lensdown Fair, on Thursday last, a large quan tity of cheese was pitched prices from 565. to 635. InaeY loads were carried od unsold. Very few good horses, and even inferior ones sold high. One Gen tleman missed his pocket-book, which contained nearly 9001. At Worcester Laminas Fair therewas a very large stipply of cattle and sheep; the former were rather Upon the decline in price, the-latter maintained the same prise as at the last fair, and many of both were driven away for want of purchasers. Good horses were scarce, and sold, at very high prices. Severity pockets of hops were weighed; current prices 41. to 51. tYs. per csvt. Two fine fields of barley, belonging to Messrs. Samuel. Wilson and Jiinets Mason, farmers in the Perish of Cambuslang, were cut down on the 15th inst. The crop is exceedingly good, Lord Viscount ANSON continues to :give a- silver Cup, the %aloe of 20. guinea, to ,the person, who (being a tenant) shall plough and prepare for sow ing the greatest quantity at land upon his farm, not less than 30 acres, with :'only .two horses or oxen abreev, and without the assistance or a diiver, be tweea the „present time and this time next year. Accounts have been received from persons who have the best tne:ins of making a correct report, that ee Wiltshire Downs, in the lower part of Somerset, and in Dorset and Devonshire, there is .a pros Pea of a plentiful harvest, and that corn in general never bore a more healt4 appearance, or a,feller ear. . • Tile shew. of horses at Lincoln, Which was held the 12th and 14th instant, was ,very numerously at teeded, most or the principal dealers and breedere belonging to the adjoining counties, and London, being present, and the spew was far superior to what might have been expeaed on the first meeting. There was a number of high-priced horses which sold well, and a good deal of business was done in the nag. and black-colt line. From the manner in which this shew has been supported, and the num ber of dealers and breeders who have promised their eerereatiendance, the next August Meetiug, it is expected, will be very. fully attended. A correspondent, who. lately made the tour of se veral English counties, informs us, that the crops of corn iu general appear good, and the ears well filled. In sonic few places blight and mildew have made their appearance.; but the _wheat was so far . advanced to maturity before they came on, that the produce will be little deteriorated by them. Dry weather, however, is now much wanted, in order to harvest the different kinds of grain. Asfull average crop is expelled, and rather .more in many places. The turnips are very **unequal. The fly has been very busy in - certain distrietse : On Wednesday last, as the. infant daughter of John Petman, master of an Ordnance Hoy, at Sheerness, was lying in a cradle near the fire, a spark from the same Hew into the cradle, and set fire to the bed clothes, which burnt the child in so shocking • a manner that its life is despaired of. 3R[JISii ItLiJLfP. AN ADDRESS TO TILE PLOVLE OF ENOLAND. A very judicious and temperate Pamphlet, under this title, has recently been ptiblished, and as. the author is evidently animated by principles of pa triotistn, he will, we doubt not, excuse Us for making an arinale ettraa, - as his sentiments and Ma.. soiling may be of use to the public. " MY FELLOW-COUOTRYNEN, Nothing teaches so well as experience ; .His tory is the experience of others, handed down to 'us by those who are interested in the welfare of pus ? terity : if a father bequeaths. .to hit children .an estate, entrusting it . to their management, under _ certain regulations, and pointing out the danger which he once entoentered by a different lint of management-; the children, having the advantage of his experience, and enjoying the fruits which have resulted from it, are not justified • in lightly deserting the rules, or infringing the stipulations by Which his wisdom hat guarded it. " When any great political question arises amongst us, we are apt to a& upon it ac if it were altoz,e ther new; but the wisest of men has told us, that in his days there was nothing new under the sun ; and , the greatest blockhead in ours, with a little :Aden tion to tads, may easily discover that political no- velty is quite out:of the question. " We have been told, and in pretty strong lan guage, during the last six months„ that the Consti tution of this country is in a state of eon uptiyn, and that our enemies must come and hievitalq up, uuteSi we set about a Reto ; uttless we pull this said Constitution to pieces, cleat and brusit up all its wheels, mend its movements, and, as our political watch-makets wuuld have it, acd a new main-spring. " Now, as these opinions and. the advice which follows them, .rwy appear to many well-disposed and loyal persons w be original, and arising' imme diately out oflocal'or passing occurrences, it with do us no harm to look back to our own experience, or, _ . to the experience of others in the history of our fa thers ; and whilst we turn over the'page to discover whether Reformers have ever existed before, we May as well turn over ode more to ascertain the good effects of their endeavours, and the real pur pose of their exertions. Upon reference then, we hnd that Reformers have lived in every period of history ; and which may appear very extraordinary, have in ge neral been men of similar charade: s and talents, as well as dispOsitiorial turbulent, restless, 'awl ambi tious; outwardly professing a high love of country, and a nice respect for the public ',establishments, but invariably discovering &leas - in the Governors, and corruption in the administration or the laws. As nothing human can be pet fed, so, in a multi tude of men, sbme weak or wicked ones will be found ; but it- would be hard that the many should be destroyed for the few. When God was wrath against the iniquities of the people of Sodom, he would have saved the city had there been to righteous men found in it : shall We eXaa to the uttermost „farthing, whilst God deals Thus with his creatures ? No ; let us rather overlook, in the great good result ing from many virtues, the little evils that will obtrude themselves from the few practisers of vice • and error. " But let us endeavour to discover what advan tages Reformers have in ,general produced to the public cause ; and, as the motives of their proceed lugs have, iu the course of time, developed them- selves, how far they are entitled to the praise and approbation of their fellow-countrymen. 1 shall not go so far back as to notice the Patriots and Re formers of the ancient Republics of Greece and Rome, it is sufficient to observe, that in the ab sence of a stable, fixed" constitution, by which only the laws can be equally binding upon every class in the community, faction succeeded fattion, pro fessing higher principles, .and more exalted notions of liberty than the other, until the shadow of liberty itself could be no longer discerned, and the, people were reduced to the most abject slavery, butchered for the ainu%enient of their tyrants, and lost not only to-the political rights of subjects, but denied eVell . the common priviieges of. men.. They are, at this day, the ore bound in the cbains of . the Great Turk, the other groaning uuder the tyranny of Buo naparte ; but an empty shadow of themselves. It was the happy lot of this country, we find, to have very early a digested code of laws, a Constitution framed, not by reforming demeLogues, - , but by a pa triot King : under the great Alfred the foundation stone of that Constitutioa which has borne us through many. a tempest and storm, and raised us to be the envy of ,nations, was laid ; the laws by which equality of justice is measured to the people from the highest to the lowest, established, and the first seeds of our naval superiority sown. " In the opinion of our modern Reformers, men who profess to mend these institutions, learning is an evil and ad obstacle in, the way of liberty and good Government, yet it was by learning that Al fred etietted all this good. The country, before his reign, was in a state of barbarism, and sunk in the grossest ignorance: by the efforts of learning, the people became humanized, and arts and com merce began to flourish, but those persons who rail against learning, have a motive for their conduct ; they know the. learning opens the knowledge and experience of past times to those who possess it, and experience' is against wanton innovations and. rude relorms ; besides, who can become master of a trade or handicraft, without first learning tine ru diments ? " No man is fit to make laws for his country, or to be a guardian of her liberties, who is not master of all that relates to Government, in old times as well as iu the present day; and thisle cannot be with oat learning. " It is worthy of remark, that the three greatest events in our history, I - mean the signing of the Mag na Cbarta by King John, the Reformation in the reign of Henry VIII. and the Revolution-of 1688, by which the Protestant SUccessitian was secured, were none of them - err:saed by the cabals or intrignes. of popul..r reformers, or by clubs of revolutionists. In the first and last instance, the good was achieved by the greatest and most powerful men in the king dom, who saw the liberties of their country endan gered•by an attempt at arbitrary power, and manful ly stood forward, not to innovate, not to introduce LONDON : rtinted -by RICHARD HARRIS, of No. 4, Martlett-court, Bow-street; and Published by WILLIAM A RMIG R SC RI Pl'S,' South; Molten.strt-et, c; or ver,c „ Equat e, AL the 51:24.0FME, No. 112, Strand; where Advertisrments, Orders !or the Paper Letters for the Editor, 4 1 / 4 e. (post-puia), rn:tst bs addressad. , fanciful systen4, not to overthrow establ ;shiner, t bUt• merely to restore the balance 'which had for a 'mo ment been threatened. In questions of such a na ture, in a danger pressing and evident, th?re is. no - Occa,ina for inflammatory persuasions to revolt, there' is no need of tavern dinners or secret meetings to inake,the people disaffe6ted ; the etic is produced by the cause which cannot be hid ; and whenever a king of this country ventures to infringe the laws he is sworn to guard, whenever he attempts to ren der himself absolute and independent of the other branches of the government, there will need no meetings or dinners, or drunken speeches, or covert insults, to rouse the people of England. They will aa as the barons did by John, or as the whigs did by James, without the di6tation of a tribune, or the in centives of mock patriots, who seck, in revolution, nut an increase of regularity, but the breach of all order, in which, like French and not English revolu- _ . they may plunder, enrich, and perhaps ele- sate theingelses. " I shall not detain you with details respe6tieg the reforms proposed by Wat Tyler and Jack Straw, in the reign of Richard the Second, who would have murdered every man of rank and property in the country, and actually did execute many, for no other crime than that of being of a certain quality ! but proceed to the efteatual operation of reforMing prin ciples in the overthrow of the monarchy, in the murder of Charles I. Let us attend very particular ly, my dear countrymen, to the circumstances con netaed with this great rebellion, to Which some of our bolder reformer, refer with expressiofts of delight and satisfactoo, and in reference to which, the good old cause, a cant word well known to )ou all, has to date iis " You all recollect that popular distontentS were 'industriously fomented by certain hot-headed en thusiasts, in the reign of Charles I. against that trio - parch, . who, whatever might have been his public errors, wa,s in his private lite an example of every t domestic virtue and of great piety. He certainly was guilty of a great offence against the first' princi liales of the constitution, by endeavouring to assume too great a share of power; but to ibis even he was (trivet) by the necessity of the times, and the oppo sition of his enemies. Whatever, however, were his-failings or his virtues, his overthrow was decreed, and his assassination accelerated for the avowed pur pose of reforming abuses, rooting out corruption, and restoring the constitution to its primitive vigour and purity. History tells us, that preachers, who then answered the purpose of weekly political registers, had long been employed particularly against the king and the prelacy. " They took care to treat of - the reigning divisions in parliament, and ascribed then entirely to the selfish ends pursued by. membets.— In the hands of those members, they said, are lodged all the considerable commands of the army, all the lucrative-offices in the civil administration; and, whilst the nation is falling every day into poverty, and groans under the insupportable weight of taxes, these men multiply possession on possession, and will be in a little time-masters of the wealth of the kingdom : that such persons as fatten on.t he calami ties of their country, will ever embrace any effectual measure for bringing them to a period,.or ensuring final success to the war, cannot - be expeCted." , -- " After exaggerating these disorders," continues the historian, " they besought the lord to take his well: into his own haods; and it the instruments he had hitherto employed were not worthy to bring to a conclusion .so glotions_a design, he would inspire others more fit, who might perted what was begun." Now who would not thmk that all this was written last week, who would not take it verbatim for Mr. Cubbett's Register ? It is so tike, and so blashphe mous, and so untrue, one would almost. swear, that it was in his hand-writing. It is clear from this that Mr.Cobbett is not an original ; fur the reformers who brooghtChatles I. to the block ,itiought,or I should ra ther say, spoke precisely as he WI ; and of them he is unquestionably a very notable copy. If they are his model, and the i;iodel of modern reformers,we may, rrhaps, by examining Either this good book of ex perience, discover what are their future and more hidden objects, in the event of succediug like their great originals. It may be doubted whether the people derived any advantages, became more rich, more independent, were treated with greater consi deration, or received higher privileges and fran chises, by having a good king butchereu by his subjects. But we have no right to doubt, whilst the fad is open to our inquiry. Let us read further and grow wise by experience. Well, then, the histori an, I find, proceeds to inform us that those, who, from republican and levelling principles, had been induced to join the party of the usurper and mur derer of their sovereign, were speedily undeceived, and they sent back to their homes empty-handed, and without redress. Nothing was thought of for the people; who were kept in order by a lawless military force, and more restained than ever from in terfetino in public affairs." EXTRAORDIAARY CAUSE OF DEATH. Peter Peuteman, a painter at Rotterdam, where be was born in the year 1660, was requested to paint an emblematical piaure of mortality, repre senting human, skulls and bones, surrounded with rich gems and musical instruments, to express the vanity of this world's pleasures, amusements, ur possessions; and, that he might imitate Nature with the greater exaattiess, he went into an anatomical room, where several skeletons hung by wire, from the ceiling, and bones and skulls lay scattered about, and immediately prepared to make his designs.— While be vots thus employed., either owing to fa tigue or to intense study, he insensibly fell asleep ; but was suddenly roused by the shock of an earth quake, which happened at that instant, on the 18th of September, 1692. The moment he awoke, he observed the skeletons move about, as they were ' Shaken, in different directions, and the skulls roll from one side of the room to the other ; and, being totally ignerant of .the cause, he was struck with .such horror, that he threw himself down stairs, and fell into the street halt dead. His friends took all possible pains to efflux the impiession made on hii mind by this unlucky event, and acquainted him with the real cause of the agitation of the skeletons; but in vain for this transattion atfeeted' his spirits ins° violent a manner,-that it-brought on a disorder, which in a short time ended his days.

It is composed of a bed of loose sand, pro dative of nothing but what is forced by art, and the richest manure 5 notwithstanding which, it con tains 3000 inhabitants, whose principal food is .fish and maize; this sort of couregrowiug ingreat plenty almost all over the whole country. It may seem surprising, that a part of the world so very uehealthy as this should yet be so populous, but the - wonder will cease, when we come to understand, that the greatest pride among the men consists in the number of their wives, so that every one takes as many as he is able to maintain, some six, others eight, and others twelve at a time. The river which surroundS it rises in the interior country,• and runs into the: Atlantic. Some Geographers are of opinion that it rises out of the great Lake of Mabeira, and passes through a course of 1500 miles, before it discharges itself into - the ocean; while others, no less.obsti , nately assert it to be a confirmation of the Niger, though neither opinion can be otherwise - supported than by conjecture. The river Senegal is doubt- - less one of the largest rivers of Africa 5' tor, without ascending higher titan the Lake Benin, (the farthest that Europeans have penetrated, et least upon un questionable authority,) it is "800 leagues to the Island of 'Senegal, near the mouth of the river.-- So cruel, so savage, and so barbarous are the io habitante, that few people's curiosity is sufficient ro carry hem titioug,h the dangers and fatigues which would necessarily attend such a pursuit. Within two leagues of the sea, the river in its cdorse takes a sudden turn to the South, and, for the remainder of its passage, is divided from the sea by only a natural ridge of laud ; sometimes not a 00 toises over. By this curve it prolongs its course for 25 leagues farther, from North to South, till at length it discharges itself into the ocean, in I's de grees, 50 minutes, north latitude. This great river separates the country of the Negroes from the I.leors of Sahara, or the asert, stretching, by a number of windings, to a prodigious length, from east to west. The extreme rapidity of this river is attri buted to the space passed through by so large a body of water, cuelined within so narrow a channel, the Mouth of it being eo wore than half a league over, and that choaked Op with sand, called a bar, which renders the passage extremely difficult and deueer ous. This `ear is doubly dangerous, on account not only of the shallowness of the water at ad times, Out the shifting of the bar, and the change ot ,its situa tion, after floods and heavy rains, by .which the channels are lost, and new soundings requisite discover them. Indeed the Senegal would be quilt l shut up, but for One channel of ouo toises - in breadth, and two fathoms depth, which has long kept sitnatibn, immovable amidst the floods' and overe flowiugs of the river. This bar prevents ships of or 600 tons from entering the river, and mooring under the fort---an inconvenience that obliged the French Company to keep a vessel constantly at aue cbor in the channel, for no other purpose than to keep an account of the soundings. - The most commodious time of the year for cross' ing the bar is from the month of January tiil At gust, the winds being less variable, the river smooth' , and the bar fixed, until the eusuing rainy se asoh , when the prodigious Swell of the river, arid tkid south-west winds opposed to its rapid course, ra; so , waves to so great a height at the bar, that their dashing resembles the shock of mountains, and so furious as to dash in pieces the stoutest ship. After crossing the bar, it ,becomes a beautiful; smooth, and gently gliding river, at four fathoms depth. -- In advancing a league higher, the country, on 11 14 e south side, is clothed with beautiful verdure, the trees in perpetual bloom ; than which nothing ea!' form a inure agleeable Contrast to the dry, sandy , and barren points of land, that first present thew selves to shipping. All around lie a ereat D umber of islands - , pleasantly stocked with trees, fruits , herbage,- and birds ; out appropriated to no use, es cept the Island of Senegal. The mouth ut the rive r is laid down-in latitude 15. 50. north. fi ll' IVE GRAVESS.ND, AUGUST 22. Arrived—the Six Sisters, Mari yho.;:', Loin Norfolk ; a tlte Lloyd's, Morgan, from iamaica.
